Waste Not, Want Not: Reimagining Fashion Through Thrift Style
Sunday, Sept. 13 | 2-3 p.m.
Jahn Room
Thrifting and upcycling are not new concepts. The practice of reusing empty feed sacks, flour sacks, and sugar sacks—also known as commodity bags—as raw material for clothing and other home goods was popular during the austere decades of the 1920s through the 1940s. This program highlights a collection of sacks from Kansas mills. Presented by Marla Day, curator of Kansas State Umniversity’s Historic Costume and Textile Museum.
